I have a 98 custom with lots of ups (check the sig) and I  am thinking about upgrading to a Shocker. I need more opinions on this.

why do you need the shocker? If you're happy with the 98 than keep it.

You can't compare the two. Ones only like 150, the other is 700.

I wouldn't get a shocker though, too many problems if you dont know how to take care of it.

omg. shockers are wonderful markers.  if you are getting into tournaments and need a better gun a shocker is really nice.  personaly i dont really like the 03 vision shockers too much but i love ton tons. although they are a bit more pricey.  i'd also consider a proto, defiant 2, even an ion with ups.

shocker would be worth more than a 98 with ups

Definetly shocker. Freestyles are pretty nice too, but I believe they're a little more.

I don't like shockers myself and would much rather have a proto or freestyle, but you can't even try to compare a 98c with one, go for the shocker.
